Varsity
Friday, February 5th
The most exciting game of the year as the Cowboys eked out a 2 point victory over an ambitious Finneytown team.  Down by 2 with 8.2 seconds remaining, Finneytown's Delshon Watson hits a 3 pointer to go ahead.  Unfortunately for them, their coach called timeout a second before the shot, enabling Wyoming to win by 2 and go 15-4 on the year.  Final 46-22 Wyoming.

JV
The JV team once again scored 57 points against Finneytown, this time 57-28.  The first game was 57-37.  Moe Mitchell had the hot hand, scoring 23 and going 5 for 5 from 3 point range.

Beaten By the Braves

Thursday, March 5th, the Cowboys Basketball season came to an end in the second round of the Sectional bracket.  The boys fell 51-63 to Indian Hill.  Pollyanna points out that throughout the season the Cowboys record against Indian Hill is 2-1 and they outscored the Braves 179-162.  The team finished at 21-3 (14-0 CHL).  

What a great season.

Let's give 'em a hand.

Senior Night Scorefest

"SENIOR NIGHT!" you have to say that again in your head (or out loud) with your deepest, loudest, Cowboy Crazy voice.

The Cowboys came out strong and never let off and scored their second highest points of the season beating Mariemont 69-35.

More importantly, perhaps, the team turned out to honor their Seniors. The team earned enough leeway while still having their 2nd highest score that the seniors (alphabetically) Devon Davis, Walker Lewis, Nate Lowe and Hudson Rogers got to spend more game-time playing together than ever.  They did the class of 2015 proud.  The underclassmen did them proud too. The Cowboys out-rebounded Mariemont 34-22 and caused more turnovers, 12-8. 

The Cowboys are losing much next year but the growing team depth shows the Cowboys program and upcoming leaders and talent are stable. 

17-1 so far on the season.  It's a great year to be a Cowboy and many more great years are in the works.

One problem I noticed: the gym may have a dust problem because I saw many watering eyes early in the Senior Night ceremony.

Thanks to Bryn Lewis for the great report, and 

Thanks to Rod Apfelbeck for the sweet Senior Night shots.

And we'll have a talk with the maintenance staff about that dust.

Holding Down the Hill

Bryn Lewis reported from the Friday, February 6th, Boys Basketball game against Indian Hill.

To start the first quarter, Lonnie Grayson got a three, Walker Lewis had a huge block against the glass and Garyn Prater got a two and an And 1. Just under four minutes to go and the score was tied at 6. At 3:10 mark, Garyn was fouled and made both, 8-6. Just under three minutes, Garyn grabbed a D rebound and Lonnie got a 2 and an And1, 11-6. At 1:30 left, Hudson Rogers to an open Jake Edmonds for 3, 14-6. Walker and Mason Rogers gave the Braves fits with a number of steals and, with 40 seconds to go, Mason laid it up, 16-6.

2nd qtr., Cowboy defense continued to frustrate the Braves when Walker nabbed a steal and took the lay-up, 18-6. Less than two minutes in and Jake got a D rebound. Just under five to go and Mason grabbed a D rebound. Soon after, Walker got a putback, 20-10. At the 4:26 mark, Jake took a charge and ten seconds later drove into traffic for 2, 22-10.  The Braves tried to cut the lead but, at the 3:20 mark, Garyn to Walker for 2, 24-15.  At 2:04 left in the half, Hudson grabbed a rebound in traffic and got the putback, 26-18. Thirty seconds later and the Braves had 7 fouls.  Lonnie was fouled, twice. At the half, 29-23.

The 3rd started quick with a Mason to Walker 2, 31-23. Just under seven minutes in, Walker from the corner to an inside Hudson for 2, 33-25.  Twenty seconds later, Walker to Lonnie for 3, 36-25. Hudson grabbed another D rebound and soon after Walker drove into the paint for 38-25.  At the 5:15 mark, Lonnie got a floater and on the next possession netted a three, 43-28. At the 4:00 mark, Jake was fouled driving in the paint and made both, 45-28. The Cowboy Crazies smelled blood and got louder and louder. Hudson continued to grab more D rebounds. At the 3:10 mark, Jake executed a beautiful 360 in the paint and dished to Hudson, 47-28. Walker and Mason both scored soon enough, 51-28.  Garyn drove from the corner to a lay-up, 53-31, and then took a charge on the other end. 3rd ended, 54-33.

4th qtr., this game got away from the Braves and the game final 72-47.

Notes: Jake had at least 7 assists, Lonnie probably was close.  Cowboys out-rebounded the Braves 37-17. Hudson is a rebound beast followed, this game, by Mason then Walker.

Editorial Note: This is my son's final year playing high school ball and, as we get closer to the end, I want to watch the games without trying to take notes at the same time.  It's a special season and my son's last Cowboy year so I'd like to just enjoy it. Going forward, I won't be giving minute by minute reports.  Hopefully, someone else will take the opportunity. If not, I'll try to get at least some stats the Enquirer won't already report.

A Perfect 10

Bryn Lewis reported from the Boys Basketball game against Taylor on Tuesday, January 3rd.  The win puts them at 10-0 in the CHL (14-1 overall).

This game, a rematch against the Taylor Yellow Jackets, wasn't like the game earlier in the season and is another one of those games that I don't enjoy giving the blow-by-blow because, after the first quarter, the Cowboys' Defense, Team-play, Scoring Depth and Persistence made it a clear win early.

At the end of the first quarter, Wyoming was down by two, 13-15.  Notes: Jake Edmonds started the scoring with a top of the key 3. Lonnie Grayson had a very long three - maybe four feet beyond the three-point arc. Walker Lewis had a fight-for-it D rebound and a block.

The 2nd Qtr.: Notes: Lonnie had a jumper in the paint to take the lead, 18-17, then a steal and a pass to Walker for 20-17.Mason Rogers had a D rebound (or two), a steal and got air on a big block. Hudson Rogers was controlling the underneath. Minute to go and Garyn Prater had a putback 2 to increase the lead to double digits, 31-20, and he had a steal. 35-20 at the half.

3rd rd. Qtr.: Hudson, Hudson, Hudson, Jake, Jake.  Hudson and Jake owned the defensive boards. Andrew Marty took a textbook charge. Nate Lowe steal. Defense brought easy lay-ups. 51-24.

4th Qtr.: Nate, Nate. Nate had D rebounds and another steal. Andrew got a putback 2. With 4:34 to go, Devon Davis came in and immediately got a D rebound and a minute later shot a 3. Final: 64-35 Wyoming.

This game was all about the boards 45-15.  Hudson led the crew with at least 9 and Walker wasn't too far behind.  Mason, Jake and Lonnie grabbed a bunch too. Lonnie had 21 points.
